Was bored this morning and going over some data. Ya know with the new agreements with GD and AH. Both of those companies are huge assets to us. As in they have major contacts within the DoD. My thinking is not just with the boost of production Frpt has built up last qrt and with those 2 online but also the possiblity of alot more new orders. Confidence has to big with the players at this point I'm thinking.
Probably not eye opening for most of us here, but thought I'd share my views on it for the new investors in Frpt.

The GD and AH agreement was prompted by an order of 200 - 300 Cougars out of a 4100 POSSIBLE order by the Marines... I think that order will come before the end of the year.
Also, we have gotten all of our orders from the Marines and the British... the Army, the big enchilada, still hasn't procured anything... wait until they want some vehicles.
Of course we are going to stagnate in the 10's, maybe touch the high 9's, but you never know when these PR's are released. Look at last week...we were in the high 6's and 2 days later, high 11's. To maximize your gain, hold tight!
November will end with a fizzle (though we could have a PR on the last Board of Director needed to complete the NAS application), but December is going to be awesome... XMAS WILL ROCK.

I put the FULL STOCHASTIC indicator on top, as this one reads this stock like a book. EVERY time this indicator was pointing down then bent upward it went for a profit, perfect buy in points.
"Rule of thumb" with the Full Stochastic indicator is to buy when it is BELOW the bottom horizontal bottom line and sell when ABOVE the top horizontal line (in a perfect world)Combine this with MACD and you'll nail tops and bottoms.
We are now in the OVERBOUGHT section and the STO indicator will reset, as soon as the green line crosses the red line again we will continue up, it looks like the "holiday effect" will effect us.
-Holiday effect is when investors selloff over the holidays so they don't have to watch their investments while they take vacations basically ~
Turn around points will also be seen when the HISTOGRAM bars in the MACD indicator start growing up or north again. Those are on the bottom indicator, you can see the "mountains" and how they go positive (GREEN) or negative (RED).
So unless earth shattering news happens, the stock will continue it's cycle pattern today.

Have a great holiday people! Chart ~
So barring any news, and if we stay in the low 10's, when do you anticipate the "catch up" to occur?

ILS Division at Force Protection, Inc. Records Dramatic Growth in '06 Wednesday November 22, 9:28 am ET
LADSON, S.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Leading armored vehicle manufacturer Force Protection, Inc.'s (OTCBB:FRPT - News) Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) division reported dramatic expansion in 2006, with an estimated 400% increase in revenue to date.
The ILS division focuses on the maintenance and replacement parts support of the Company's Buffalo and Cougar blast- and ballistic-protected vehicles deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan. The vehicles have been delivered to the U.S. government in record numbers in the past year as the Company has implemented major production capacity and workforce expansion programs.
"The ILS division of Force Protection has had a huge year," said ILS Vice President Murray Hammick. "We believe we will have approximately $44 million in ILS revenues for 2006. Our total revenues in 2005 were approximately $8.5 million, as compared to approximately $35 million in revenues to date in 2006. Clearly, demand for our vehicles is increasing and the demand for our support services is growing along with it."
Logging more than 1.6 million hours of combat operations, Force Protection vehicles have withstood thousands of mine detonations and IED attacks since 2003 without a single fatality.
"The increase in ILS operations reflects a greater number of vehicles in operation," said Warranty Supervisor and retired Army First Sergeant Don Cowart. "Given the mission these vehicles fill, we anticipate the need for support services will continue to rise."

I'm serious when I say I will. I was in class at the time, sorry about that Repo. If anything happens out of the ordinary and I get caught without shares then that sucks because this is a REAL and TRUE business that will make us money.
I will be back in very SOON!!!

Please forward this e-mail to the CEO of the your company:
In the movie Wall Street, Bud Fox asked Gordon Gecko, the symbol of greed in the American financial markets, "how much is enough?" I now ask you, CEO of Wilson-Davis & Co., the same question.
What is my basis for this question? Well, I have observed over the past 2-3 months, how your firm has engaged in the illegal and unethical practice of NAKED shorting on a particular stock that not only I have a vested interest, but the American public and the entire free world does as well. What stock am I referring to? The symbol is FRPT.ob. Company name, Force Protection, Inc.
I'm sure as CEO you are probably unaware of the company I mention. However, perhaps you should take a moment from your busy schedule to visit their website (www.forceprotection.net) and research what this company is manufacturing.
Not to bore you, but as you know, the United States is engaged in a world wide campaign against the forces of terror, with no end in sight. Currently, this campaign has taken our country, for better or worse, into Iraq and Afghanistan. While we initially engaged and overran the forces of terror using conventional warfare methods, the enemy has begun using one weapon at their disposal that can continue to harm, maim and kill American service men and women. That weapon is the Improvised Explosive Device (IEDs). IEDs are now the leading cause of U.S. casualties, and as our campaign on terror continues in other parts of the world, the IED will be the chosen weapon of the enemy in order to be successful at KILLING American troops.
Force Protection, Inc. manufacturers 3 vehicles (the Buffalo, the Cougar, the Cheetah) that COUNTERACT this threat. To date, NOT ONE U.S. SERVICEMAN HAS BEEN KILLED WHILE RIDING IN A FORCE PROTECTION VEHICLE FROM AN IED. You may want to reread that sentence again and let it sink in... This statistic is in sharp contrast to the track record of the "Hummer", the mainstay of the U.S. Armed Forces that is used in the type of conflicts our country is now engaged in.
The point of all my e-mail? Well, your company has actively been engaged in NAKED shorting of this stock, which to me, is equivalent to FINANCIAL TERRORISM. You are but one step above the forces of terror who strike at our troops with IEDs. I don't understand how a U.S. financial entity's CEO can sleep at night knowing that his traders are attempting to PUNISH the stock of a company that is in the business of saving AMERICAN LIVES for financial gain.
Which leads me to my original premise and question... "How much is enough?" Of all stocks to short, is this one absolutely necessary, considering the value it has in the United States of America's fight on global terrorism?
Thank you for your time and consideration

Has anyone besides me been watching the Level II's? Its comical.
WDCO, now losing money after shorting early this morning prior to the PR and runup, is sitting on the bid, driving the price up. HOWEVER, whenever it senses weakness or sells coming in, it will put itself on the ask as well to try and push the price down... its hilarious.
I hope that WDCO trader gets NO bonus this year!
